Chapter 196 - 190. Fairy Tale
Before the door of the dormitory room even closed completely, Bassena had found himself in Zein’s grasp; lips slotted against each other, moving like they were trying to rob each other’s air.
Their hands were everywhere, shedding each other’s coats and letting them fall into the foyer, tripping and stumbling as they got out of their shoes until Bassena fell to the couch and stared at the beautiful face above him; the sparkling eyes, the reddened cheek, the glistening lips that were smiling lovingly.
And as he stayed still, stunned by the reality of their newfound relationship, Zein kissed him again, straddling his hips and stroking his neck.
There was one thing he realized about the guide; Zein wouldn’t always indulge his advances, but when the guide did, or initiate something, it was aggressive. And much more now.
"Do you want to continue where we left off this morning?" Zein asked, in a sultry voice that almost made Bassena squirm like a virgin. Rough hand trailing the edge of his lapel, playing with his button, and almost made the esper hiccup.
This--this was Zein being decisive. This was Zein in a relationship.
Bassena had to take a deep breath to be able to speak without stuttering. "No," he said under his breath.
Zein tilted his head, staring at the esper inquisitively. After all, it was Bassena who was asking for ’more’ this morning.
"I just want...umm, to spend more time with you," Bassena said, feeling unexpectedly bashful beneath that stare. He was used to pursuing Zein and when the guide was being assertive, it felt weird.
But in a wonderful way.
When Zein arched his brow, Bassena added swiftly. "I mean, like...just talking, or..." he shrugged, finding himself mumbling like a boy on his first date, gripping Zein’s waist nervously.
